How Important Is Swag In College, Coming From A College Student

by Sep 22, 2020

College swag

As a college student, a broke college student to be exact, swag is very important to us.

As a freshman that is the prime time to receive custom college swag. I remember receiving  a custom t-shirt representing my graduating class, a lanyard, some pens and a string bag.   

I can truthfully say that I still have these products three years later. 

 When a college provides students with trendy, useful items, students will hold on to them and they will last a long time. 

 For colleges, they ultimately want to look good, and show that they care about their students by providing them with quality swag.  

  Students can be tough to please, so when a college gets it right, students can’t complain. 

 The best items college students are looking for are listed down below: 

Water bottles 

Reusable water bottles are key on campus. Many campuses provide water fountains that can refill water bottles. It is an eco friendly alternative and is an easy way to show school spirit. 

Lanyards  

I can honestly say that lanyards are so essential in college. It is the one item I can rely on to keep me organized. I still use the same lanyard from freshman year to hold on to my key and ID. Without it they would definitely be long gone (and it is not cheap to replace your ID or key). 

 Face masks 

 This is a new one for colleges. My school provided me with a custom college face mask, but had others readily available if you lost it or needed a new one. Not only are custom face masks an easy way to advertise your school, its also supper essential for everything! I guarantee we will be needing to wear face masks a while longer, and adding one more face mask to your collection does not hurt, not to mention you’re practically a walking build board for them, if you weren’t already.
